This is perhaps one of the coolest and most original Star Wars Halloween costumes I’ve seen.  And I’ve been to 4 out of 5 Star Wars Celebrations.

Lindsie Bird, from Salt Lake City, Utah, decided that she was going above and beyond the cool and made a Lego Chewie costume.  But not exactly.  See, she’s a regular Lego guy dressed as Chewie.  There’s a big distinction there.

Asked why she did it, she responded, “We’re having a costume contest at work, so I wanted to do something original.  I am surrounded by Legos and Star Wars at home so it just seemed appropriate.”

On a scale of 1 – 10 of Star Wars fandom, she rates herself a 10.  “I love Star Wars, although I am not as versed in the Star Wars universe as most everyone around me. But I still enjoy it fully.”

Her husband, Shawn Bird, helped her make the costume.  He’s also a big Star Wars fan.  You can check out the art they both make on their blog, Soul Doubt Comics. (He posts plenty of Star Wars Art there, too.  His latest is this Boba Fett)
